Degtyarev called the admission of the PKR to international competitions a landmark event.

The decision to allow Russian Paralympians to participate in international competitions is a landmark event for world sports. This was announced on September 27 by Mikhail Degtyarev, Minister of Sports and Chairman of the Russian Olympic Committee, in an interview with Izvestia.

"This is a landmark event because it goes ahead and shows the absolute illegality, treachery, and stupidity of all the sanctions imposed on Russian athletes," he said.
